Law of the Devil

(As usual, two chapters are combined into one chapter, and they are published together. There is no chapter, but the weight is only a lot more.)

Probably because she was already stunned, even Princess Louise had almost forgotten the etiquette habits she had developed since she was a child. In any case, it is very impolite to stare at a person like this.

Princess Louise even forgot to answer the other party's question. Fortunately, Miss Delly behind her came back to her senses and gently pulled the princess.

Only then did the princess come back to her senses, but after she heard the other party's words clearly, she was even more surprised.

That guy... the servant?

What shocked Louise was that the "servant" in the mouth of this beautiful and outrageous guy - such a vigorous and coercive guy, is actually just a servant? The eccentric guy looked so haughty that even his extraordinary

The haughty temperament seems to be inborn. This kind of awe-inspiring aura that naturally exudes is clearly a temperament that can only be cultivated by being superior... Such a guy is just a servant?

I'm afraid that the people in the world, the vast majority of people, are only worthy of being his servants!

However, it just so happened that these words came from the mouth of that beautiful and outrageous guy, so it was so natural. The weird thing is, this beauty (Louise called this guy in her heart), his (her?) every word is clear

Gentle, if the temperament of that servant is like a proud lonely peak, then this person is like the vast sky! No matter how proud the mountain peak is, it seems that it cannot reach the sky.

"...Ah." Louise finally spoke, and she took a deep breath. After all, she was slightly flustered by the court education she received since she was a child, and then she calmed down. He smiled and said: "Well, you are right, we are going to Loulan City, may I ask, Your Excellency

have what……"

There was an undisguised smile in the other party's eyes, and his every move seemed to contain an indescribable demeanor: "Well, that's great. I have a very presumptuous request. My servant and I are Came from another place, want to travel in the Northwest

Experience the scenery beyond the Great Wall here. Unfortunately, we have just been told in this town, where the Tulip Duke issued a special decree. It is said that because Loulan City is too prosperous, there are too many mainland businessmen coming in and out every day, so

The Duke of Tulip has ordered restrictions on entering the city-except that it costs money to pay entry duties. You have to get a customs clearance permit from the place of travel before you can enter the city. Moreover, it is the busy season, and I heard that at this time of year, all the hotels in the city are closed

It will be full, and if there is no customs clearance permit for the caravan, even entering the city, you will not be able to find an inn...beautiful lady. You see, our master and servant are just ordinary tourists, not businessmen, and we have come all the way, and we didn't know the Northwest area beforehand.

This is a special decree. Therefore, I see that you and your companions seem to be the original caravan. I think you must have the entry permit. So, I took the liberty to block your way. Could you please take us into town with you? "

Princess Louise froze for a moment.

Customs clearance. It is a new decree issued by Du Wei, starting from the year before last. In order to prevent spies from the Northwest Army or grassland people from entering his territory at will, he ordered the checkpoints set up in the border areas of the entire Desa Province, and caravans must board

Base, in exchange for customs procedures before entering the country.

Princess Louise came from the imperial capital, and in her capacity, although she did not show herself as a princess, when she came, she had already asked her subordinates to go through the formalities in the name of an imperial noble. She has customs clearance procedures, but... bring these two

Strange people come to town together?

The curiosity in Louise's heart finally gained the upper hand, and bringing two people in was nothing to her, a majestic imperial princess, but she was really curious about this unbelievably beautiful guy.

She has seen all kinds of rich and noble children since she was a child, but she has never seen a person whose demeanor can be so beautiful! While staring at this guy, she secretly guessed the origin of this guy.

Judging from his appearance, he should be very young, and this standard Roland Continental accent must have been acquired by the aristocratic family who studied rigorously since he was a child, and this kind of demeanor, as well as his gestures, are simply not picky at all. not flawless

His elegance made Princess Louise believe that this guy must be a young man from a wealthy family.

However, I have never heard of such a young and outstanding person in any big family in the empire. Is it those ancient families in the north? But this guy looks so gentle and delicate, he doesn't look like the boldness that northerners should have, then

What, southerners? But looking at his fair skin, and his eyes are so clear and crystal clear, he doesn't look like those overly shrewd southerners. The most important thing is that Princess Louise feels that all the top wealthy families on the mainland are basically gathered in the imperial capital.

, if any family's younger generation produces such a hero, it is absolutely impossible for him not to know.

"Okay." The princess and Miss Dai Li glanced at each other and said, "It's not difficult to bring you into the city, but, my lord, before asking others for help, can you explain your identity and origin first?" ?”

"Well, my name is Luoxue, and I'm from the northern part of the mainland." The man smiled, and it had to be admitted that when he smiled, even Princess Louise lost consciousness for a short while in his smile.

"...Well... Luoxue, what a beautiful name." The princess concealed her gaffe: "Compared to your hometown, you must see the beautiful scenery of the northern country with colorful snow." After a pause, she looked at the "servant" behind her. ": "Well, your

What about companions? "

Even if Princess Louise was beaten to death, she would never believe it. How could such a guy with outstanding temperament, even carrying a hidden coercion, be a servant.

"Oh...he's just a servant, you just need to call him Xiaosan." Luoxue replied flatly. His tone was still gentle, but when he mentioned this servant, he was gentle. It is very appropriate, as if a

The gentleness of a kind master to his slaves. Although amiable, but that kind of implicit superior taste. But it is very real.

And... really a servant.

But... Xiaosan, this name is so... so strange.

Soon, the princess immediately decided to take them on the road together, and she saw that the two men didn't even have horses, so she asked the escorting knights to give them two horses to ride on. .

The accompanying knights are the elite attendants of the guardian princess and Miss Delly. Originally, they were blocked by these two strangers, so they

I am already very upset, and I have to give up my war horse. Naturally, some people were dissatisfied, but the princess ordered, and the knights did not dare to disobey. Anyway, these knights traveled long distances, riding two riders. Bring spare horses.

At this moment, in order to embarrass the two guys who blocked the way, someone took the spare horse with them. The two most violent horses were pulled out.

These two tall horses. They are all high-quality war horses among the Royal Forest Army. It's just that this kind of war horse cannot be ridden by ordinary people.

Seeing the two horses brought in front of the two, the other knights sneered in their hearts: I'd better get you off your horses in a while!

But next. Everyone was stunned!

These two tall war horses. When they came to the ground of these two people, they were still restlessly planing their hooves. Even one of them. It seems that there is still some faint fear. He screamed uncomfortably. The servant named "Xiao San". just "huh"

He sneered, but with just such a "hum", the horse beside him neighed directly. Then he backed away restlessly. If it weren't for the fact that these war horses have been strictly trained. I'm afraid he has already broken free from the reins in the knight's hand

, ran away directly.

Even the surrounding knights, under the eyes of this weird "little three", faintly felt a strange sense of fear and oppression in their hearts.

And at this time, Luoxue smiled lightly and took two steps forward. He stretched out his hand and stroked the horse's back. There seemed to be a natural gentle aura about him, and the restless war horse immediately calmed down.

Under the eyes of everyone, Luo Xue's hand lightly landed on the horse's head, stroked it back and forth, and the war horse actually bowed its head obediently, and then. The four hooves knelt down and fell in front of Luoxue. It turned out to be extremely docile. Let the snow fall lightly

Sitting loosely on the horse's back, the war horse supported its hooves and stood up.

"Little San. Don't scare our companions." Luoxue was riding on the horse, and looked back at his servant. There was a trace of fear in that Xiaosan's expression, not daring to disobey Luoxue's order. Pull the reins, get on the horse, no

No more action.

A group of people went to Luolancheng, and after going through the formalities for entering the city at the checkpoint at the gate of the city, they came to Loulan City.

This season is indeed the busiest time in Loulan City. In spring, everything recovers. After the severe winter, all kinds of supplies are consumed hugely. It is precisely because a large number of caravans from the mainland are flocking out of customs and entering the grassland to sell various living utensils and grains in the mainland. Waiting for goods

best time.

Entering Loulan City, the streets are bustling with people, and caravans coming and going are crowded on the road with carriages. Although the northwest has just experienced a war, it has not reduced the enthusiasm of the merchants. The empire of Loulan City frontier most

The big city has become a bustling commercial city under the operation of Du Weidi for more than two years.

Although the streets were busy and crowded, the order was not chaotic. Groups of cavalry wearing the uniforms of the Tulip Family City Guards patrolled back and forth on horseback. On the notice board at the gate of the city, the latest decree of the Duke of Tulip is posted, and there is even a special official from the General Administration of Government Affairs.

Some clerks assigned by the door stood by the notice board and read the content aloud.

From the moment they entered the city gate, in the eyes of Princess Louise and her party, the entire Loulan City was a scene of prosperity and prosperity.

The streets in the distance are even being expanded, and tall houses are being built one after another. It is even strange that there are ordinary citizens in twos and threes next to the projects under construction. , with food in hand

Baskets of food and water to reward those who are building houses and roads.

These are all kinds of things. It left a group of outsiders stunned. And then. Princess Louise was curious and had fun again, and immediately sent a knight to ask passers-by. The result obtained. Make everyone even more surprised.

"These signboards were all ordered by the Duke of Tulip. Those banners and the words on the trash cans are all advertisements that the Duke said, but any merchant who wants to write their own words on them will have to pay. of.

It is said that it is calculated according to the time. Every month, you have to go to the Government Affairs Department of the Governor's Mansion to participate in the bidding. Now it is said that a banner on this street has been sold for 1,000 gold coins a month, and a trash can has been sold for 500 gold coins a month.

"

After hearing this, Princess Louise calculated quickly in her heart, couldn't help but took a breath, looked at this wide and bustling street, looked at the banners and trash cans in the distance, calculated the number, and sighed: " God, so, isn't it

It's just this street that can make Duke Tulip earn more than 10,000 gold coins every month? Just hang a few pieces of cloth casually, and you can collect at least 10,000 gold coins a month! "

"Ten thousand gold coins is enough to feed an imperial standard infantry battalion." As expected of the general's younger sister, Miss Dali immediately came to such a conclusion: "This Duke Tulip is really a master at making money."

Luoxue, who had been following behind, couldn't help sighing at this moment, and whispered to the servant beside him: "Have you seen that many young men walking on the streets here have steady steps and strong arms. The eyes are bright, even though they are civilians

, It looks like a person who has undergone military training. These are much stronger than other places in the continent we have traveled along the way. I'm afraid... Once a war breaks out in the future, the Tulip Duke can pull up hundreds of thousands of qualified troops at any time. Moreover, this

This guy seems to be very good at making money. The money must have been used to feed his army. "

That servant was naturally the third prince of the dragon clan who surrendered, with a stern look in his eyes, he said in a low voice: "Master, I dealt with this guy before, he is a very shrewd person, he was even able to my father's hunt

run away. We have come all the way, this Duke of Tulip is probably the top outstanding talent among human beings, maybe... we can take him now..." He said. He raised his finger and stroked his neck lightly.

Looking at the golden dragon's stern face. Luo Xue smiled lightly, he raised his head and looked at the sky. The sun is already a little dazzling. Luo Xue stretched out her delicate palm. Covering the eyelids, under the golden eyes, the silver thread around his wrist glowed faintly.

finally. The Elf King smiled, and his smile was as warm as a spring breeze, but his voice, word by word, was like a knife piercing through the gold.

Dragon's heart.

"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking... You'd better remember carefully, now your identity is just my servant. No matter what happens, I make any decision. I don't need you to contribute wisdom to me Suggestion." The Elf King looked at

Golden Dragon, although his smile is gentle, but there seems to be a needle hidden in his eyes: "Assassinate a duke in the human world, and he himself is a strong man in the mainland, surrounded by a cloud of masters... You must really want me to die in Roland mainland."

The golden dragon's face changed, and he was about to defend himself. Luo Xue has already smiled lightly: "There is no need to deny it. We are very clear about each other's thoughts, you surrender to me. But I will not naively think that you are loyal to me just because of this. It's just that I need to remind you

Yes...even if you want to play tricks. It's also best to do it cleverly, don't use this stupid trick next time, because it will make me look down on your intelligence. "

talking. Luo Xue had already lightly kicked the horse's belly. walked to the front.

Leave the golden dragon behind. There was a complex meaning in his eyes.

Princess Louise and her party came directly to the residence of a Southern Chamber of Commerce in the city. After all, Miss Dai Li's family is a wealthy family in the south of the mainland. It is inextricably linked with this southern chamber of commerce. I learned early on that the youngest member of the family who is currently the most distinguished

Sister is here. The people in the chamber of commerce cleared out a clean, comfortable and spacious yard in the headquarters of the chamber of commerce very early on.

When Princess Louise and her party arrived, the leader of the Chamber of Commerce immediately went out to greet them. Invite them into the yard. Delly did not reveal the identity of Princess Louise, only that she was her good friend. Anyway, a lady from such aristocratic family. always missing

The leader of the chamber of commerce only treated her as a noble lady from a certain family, and received her warmly.

Delly ordered the guard knights to live around the courtyard to guard, and she and Louise entered the chamber of commerce with the maids they brought with them.

The yard is fairly clean and comfortable. Just slightly smaller. The explanation from the head of the Chamber of Commerce is that Loulan City is developing extremely fast now. The land price here is too expensive, almost an inch of land, so it is impossible for the own chamber of commerce to occupy

The land is too big. The strength of the Southern Chamber of Commerce is quite good, and it can have such a place. It is rare in Loulan City.

Princess Louise didn't care about the living environment, and immediately sent her confidant and caring maid to the Liszt family's Chamber of Commerce in Loulan City to contact Mrs. Liszt.

And as for Luoxue...

Curiously, Princess Louise retained the Elf King. And the Elf King who originally planned to stay here temporarily. He didn't refuse, and stayed here as a guest for the time being. In respect of this mysterious "beauty". Princess Louise commanded the fallen

Mr. Xue lived alone in a courtyard with his servants.

Luoxue happily accepted the princess' kindness. Then he made a request, and he saw that there was also a study room in the chamber of commerce. He hopes to borrow some books in the study.

"What books do you need?"

"Customs and customs, any book is fine. If there is a general history of the mainland, it is best. I have already read the sixth volume. You should have a full set?" The gentle and elegant demeanor of the elf king made the leaders of the chamber of commerce secretly guess—could he come from the imperial capital? which place

A prominent nobleman?

"Oh, although we don't have one, I'll send someone to buy one right away." The leader of the chamber of commerce quickly withdrew.

I don't know why, facing this beautiful man with a gentle smile (in fact, even he can't tell the gender of the other party, but when Miss Dai Li introduced her, she called Luo Xue "Mr." Italy), head of the chamber of commerce

There is always an inexplicable awe in my heart.

During lunch, Princess Louise sent someone to invite Luoxue to have a meal together. The Elf King happily accepted the invitation, but in order not to spoil the atmosphere, Luoxue was very considerate and did not bring his "servant" to attend, but left the Golden Dragon in the yard

inside.

After lunch, the two girls, Delly and Princess Louise, used all kinds of words to try to figure out Luoxue's identity. But the elf king's conversation is excellent, astronomy and geography, humanities and art, music and painting, it seems that everything, this versatile

The men here are extremely proficient in many fields. Although they haven't really done it, some of the views he said, in the eyes of Princess Louise and Miss Delly, are almost comparable to those famous masters in the imperial capital that they have met. And the elf king is elegant

The demeanor made this lunch very enjoyable.

And Princess Louise paid special attention to Mr. Luoxue's posture during the meal. The other party's etiquette when using a knife and fork is even inferior to Princess Louise, who has accepted court etiquette since childhood. Looking at the demeanor of this Mr. Luoxue, it seems to be watching

A very beautiful picture scroll, even the subtle movements of his fingers seemed to be so beautiful!

While the two women were intoxicated, they couldn't help being secretly surprised.

How could there be such a beautiful person in the world? If he is a daughter, I am afraid that no woman in the world can compare to him!

After lunch, the leader of the chamber of commerce came to interrupt in a hurry, interrupting the atmosphere of the three people's conversation.

The leader brought a message: the most trusted assistant of the Duke of Tulip, the chief executive of the Desa Province, the second person in the Desa Province, Sir Philip is visiting!

The purpose of Lord Philip's visit is very simple. He claimed to have heard of the arrival of Miss Delly, who will soon become the princess of the empire. He came to greet the audience on behalf of the Duke of Tulip, and warmly invited Miss Delly to attend a noble event held at the Duke of Tulip's mansion tonight.

banquet.

Delly and Princess Louise glanced at each other, under Princess Louise's wink, Delly asked, "Where is Mrs. Philip?"

"It's just outside."

"Too negligent." Delly frowned: "The chief executive of the Desa province is equivalent to the official position of the governor of the empire. How can he let Mr. Philip wait outside? Please come in!"

Glancing at Luoxue, originally Dai Li wanted to ask Luoxue to avoid it first, but suddenly something moved in her heart, and she didn't know what the idea was for fun, so she put it back when the words came to her lips.

When the Elf King heard that he was "Duke Tulip's most trusted assistant", a wonderful look flashed across his beautiful eyes...
