Lord of Secrets

In the castle of the Naxos family manor. ░▒▓█►─═  ═─◄█▓▒░

Many dim candles dotted the ancient and solemn high walls, illuminating the castle with a strong historical atmosphere, and the blue moonlight also fell on the castle, which looked quiet and distant.

Ilse got off the carriage and immediately stretched out her little hand. Ubermo took her soft little hand and said to Banky: "Next, you will follow the orders of Butler Rothar."

Rothar is Triss's housekeeper. She has a serious face and is not smiling, but she has strong execution ability.

Banky nodded when he heard it. During the time he followed his previous master, he had no chance to participate in such banquets, so he had no experience in this regard and could only follow behind Rothar.

Then, Ubermo looked at Ilse and smiled: "Ilse is very beautiful today."

Ilse said "hmm" a few times.

Triss then said to Ubermo, "Let's go in!"

After saying that, she took Ilse's other hand.

...

In the hall of the castle, the candlelight had made everything bright, and the shadows on the ground became thinner.

The castle, which should have been solemn, was now lively because of the sound of conversation, footsteps, and the sound of knives, forks and silver plates.

At this time, on the sofa near the corner of the door, Viscount Lorri was happily talking with a baron's wife.

It must be said that the other party did make his mind active, especially the baroness was a little exposed and her words seemed a little delicate.

"Tarido, I once went to a valley where people were very open and even had a strange custom. They begged me to spend a pleasant night with their wives and daughters for only one gold coin." Lorri's somewhat greasy face showed a smile, not hiding his eyes at all.

Tarido smiled and asked, "Then what?"

She showed a puzzled and curious expression at the right time.

Lorri then said, "Aren't you curious about why there are such strange customs there?"

Tarido shook her head, but her eyes seemed to be surging, as if a layer of transparent and thin water curtain had surged up. She said in a weak voice, "I just want to know Viscount Lorri's choice."

Lorri said, "Of course I refused."

Tarido was puzzled and said, "Why? If I were Viscount Lorri, I would definitely not be able to refuse such a good thing."

Lorri seemed very upright. He replied, "Because they just want to keep the bloodline of those foreign men. As a noble, of course only the woman I think is suitable is qualified to give birth to my offspring."

When saying this, Lorri looked at Tarido with an imperceptible heat in his eyes.

Tarido pursed her red lips and whispered, "It's such an honor to give birth to Viscount Lori."

Speaking of this, Tarido seemed to feel a little aggrieved, touched her belly, sighed slightly and said, "Nihuiji can no longer give me children."

Lori squinted her eyes, which were only a slit, and said, "Beautiful lady, do you know if I can help you?"

Tarido hid her worried expression and said in a soft voice, "It's my honor."

At this time, Lori smiled and said, "Tarido, I will give Baron Nihuiji a gift tomorrow to thank him for letting me know you."

Tarido looked at Lori with an expectant expression, and then said, "What gift will it be?"

Lori's mouth curled up and said, "Victory crown, congratulations on his orchard for a good harvest."

Tarido covered her mouth and chuckled when she heard it.

Then, she seemed to laugh so hard that her stomach hurt a little, that is. Then, she bent slightly, revealing a large area of ​​white under her slender neck.

After a few seconds, Tarido seemed not to see Lorri's gaze, and thanked him: "I thank Viscount Lorri for his gift on behalf of Ni Huiji. I believe that the fruitless orchard will produce a large area of ​​fruit, and he will definitely like it."

But at this time, Lorri's eyes suddenly swept to the gate and found that Triss and others walked in together.

Looking at the two people holding the little girl in the middle, Lorri hid a smile in his eyes, and then said to Tarido: "This is very interesting, isn't it?"

Tarido responded with a smile: "Of course, it's very interesting."

But then, she saw Lorri leave here and walk towards the gate.

She swallowed her words, still with a smile on her face, and then took a bite of the dessert on the table. She didn't take her eyes away from the gate, but the cream suddenly fell on her collarbone.

...

"Miss Triss, Mr. Amon-Ra, and the lovely Ilse, I'm so glad to see you all here together on this memorable night."

Looking at the somewhat obese Lorri in front of her, Triss responded: "I'm glad that Viscount Lorri has eaten less fatty food."

Viscount Lorri didn't care, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, Miss Triss, I have never restrained my love for meat, but those greasy things will not fill my brain."

Ubermo gently held Ilse's little hand. This was the first time he saw Triss had the potential to be a poisonous tongue, and she was not hypocritical at all, and she directly mocked Viscount Lorri.

At this time, Viscount Lori looked at Ubermo and said, "It's a pleasure to see you here, Mr. Amonra. I hope you won't feel tired tonight."

Ubermo raised his lips slightly, as if he didn't understand what the other party said, and replied, "Of course not, because I saw the nobles' welcome to me from Viscount Lori's eyes, and they won't bother me too much."

Lorri was stunned when he heard this, and laughed and said, "Of course, no one intends to embarrass themselves at Miss Bui's coming-of-age ceremony, which would appear to be ungentlemanly and uneducated."

After a pause, Viscount Lori said, "I wonder if I have the honor to invite you to sit over there."

Ubermo said, "Today, I am here to accompany Ilse, so you have to ask Triss."

Triss nodded.

...

Someone in the hall had already recognized Triss, but no one came forward to talk to her. Not to mention that it was a bit impolite to leave the female companion or other nobles behind, the most important point was that they didn't dare to come forward.

The Saint-Yer family is a very mysterious family. It is said that all the nobles who married women from the Saint-Yer family ended up dead.

There are even some rumors that the Saint-Yer family is cursed and only women can exist in the family. However, this cannot be confirmed because there are still many men in the Saint-Yer family.

In short, although the nobles are obsessed with the stunning looks of the Saint-Yer women, they are also deterred.

Because no one is willing to risk their lives.

Even so, there are still people who want to marry women from the Saint-Yer family, such as Finnqi, the only son of the Naxos family.

That is, Tris's former husband.

The nobles envy Finnqi, but they are also privately calculating his death date, ready to wait to see the jokes of the Naxos family.

Because there are countless real cases to support their speculation, there has never been an exception, and this time it will definitely not be.

But some people feel that the ending may be a little different.

After all, the Naxos family is a family with a thousand-year history, and they must have some understanding of the Saint-Yer family. No one knows what they once had.

Maybe they ignored the curse of the Saint Yer family.

Otherwise, why would the Naxos family agree that Finnqi would marry Tris and give birth to a child?

But most people were not optimistic, because in history, the Naxos family had never married a woman from the Saint Yer family, and it was obvious that the Naxos family was a little afraid. Otherwise, with the beauty of the Saint Yer family women, no one could resist.

No matter how everyone guessed, the final outcome was no exception.

Finnqi died!

But surprisingly, the Naxos family did not go to war with the Saint Yer family. It was as if nothing had happened, and the little princess Bui of the Naxos family often went to Tris.

This puzzled outsiders, and they were also a little afraid, not wanting to be involved too much with Tris, even though the other party's appearance was almost the most beautiful they had ever seen.

...

"Who is that man?" A noble asked curiously, his voice a little weak.

He had a handsome face and looked very sunny, but there was a little flaw in the corner of his eye.

At this time, the short and fat noble young man beside him shook his head and said, "I don't know him, but he looks very noble."

The person who asked earlier understood what he meant. The other party should not be a noble in Lierli. After all, the nobles in Lierli will definitely participate in some gatherings no matter what, and then get to know each other and communicate.

"De Nora, when do you think he will die?" At this time, the handsome young man looked at his short and fat friend and asked.

Denora laughed: "Bilja, I guess ten months!"

Bilja shook his head and said: "What a pity, I wonder if he will urinate when he knows the truth."

Denora laughed: "But he can get Tris before he dies, which is really enviable."

Bilja said calmly: "Denora, you can just wait for him to die. Anyway, it won't be long, Tris will still be as beautiful."

Denora coughed a few times and said: "Bilja, my good brother, I still hope to live a few more years."

Bilja did not talk more about this issue, and then asked: "When will you return to Xisong?"

Denora's expression became calm, and he took a sip of red wine and replied: "In a few days, I should go back and take a look."

Bilja heard the words, touched the wine glass lightly, and then said: "I hope you can give me a sip of your father's treasured red wine when the time comes."

Denora's eyebrows were a little worried, and he just said: "If there is a chance."
