My Magic Age
Chapter 1455 5. I'll go
The magnificent floating imperial city seemed to be holding a grand celebration dinner. It was said that His Majesty Charles was entertaining guests from afar.
The Royal Eagle Lion Knights passed silently in the night sky, and dozens of Eagle Lion Knights circled over the imperial capital. On the streets of the city, some knights from the guard camp rode by on horseback. Seeing the dark faces of these knights, the civilians knew that they had to stay away at this time, so as not to vent their pent-up anger on themselves.
Under the cover of darkness, the nightlife of the residents in the imperial capital was not affected at all. The noisy streets were still filled with a wide variety of goods. The roadside stalls along the street attracted many civilians. With a glass of beer and a portion of fried fish, they could sit on the benches along the street and talk freely.
The magic newspapers in the imperial capital always bring people some fresh topics. With the Grimm Empire's Construct Knights winning victory after victory in various planes, people's topics always cannot avoid the plane war. In the imperial capital, the focus of people's topics cannot avoid the two most outstanding generals recognized by the imperial capital at present - Prince Wales and the eldest son of the Mo family. As for His Royal Highness Prince Charles and Angela's multi-plane, few people talk about it. It's not that people have forgotten him, but that everyone doesn't know how to evaluate him.
Ying Li likes to wear civilian linen dresses and pulls me through such a lively street market. She said that this way she can more truly feel the beautiful life of civilians.
Standing in front of the glass window of a tailor shop, Ying Li looked at the lilac long skirt in the window in a trance. The shop maid at the door pushed open the wooden door and greeted us cordially. I asked Ying Li if she liked the imitation court dress. Ying Li smiled and shook her head, turned around and pulled me away.
…
In this summer, many fresh foods appeared in the market of the imperial capital. Grilled clams are a very cheap and popular snack in the imperial capital.
Shellfish growing on the rocks by the sea were shipped to the imperial capital in boxes. The low price made it gradually become a delicacy in the eyes of ordinary people. You only need to spend fifteen or sixteen copper coins to buy a full plate of clams. Put a copper net on the copper basin full of charcoal and put the clams on it. No seasoning is needed. As long as they are grilled, they are very delicious.
Ying Li and I found a small square table on the roadside that can only seat four people. There was such a charcoal brazier on the table. The clams on the copper net were grilled and sizzling.
Helena and Becky would also let go of their reserve at this time. They skillfully stretched out their index fingers and thumbs to pinch the edge of the clam shells, picked up the clams from the copper net, first drank the delicious soup in the clam shells, and then sucked the slightly hot tender meat of the clams into their mouths. The clam meat that was not overcooked was very tender.
On the tables of the nobles, this kind of clams are sometimes used by chefs to make soup, but it is rarely eaten by the common people.
Sitting in front of this barbecue stall in the street market, you can watch the hustle and bustle of the street, listen quietly to the people at the next table chatting about some interesting life stories, or talk to your friends about the troubles in life, and relieve the pressure hidden in your heart in this hustle and bustle.
Taking off the exquisite dress, Ying Li put aside her identity as the royal princess of the Green Empire, sat in front of the street stall like an ordinary person, and chatted and laughed like an ordinary person.
She lowered her head and held a glass of the most ordinary beer in both hands. The taste of the wine was slightly bitter.
"Le Die will not be like me!" Le Die stared at the white foam in the glass and muttered to herself.
"What?" I was a little confused.
"Even if she wears a fashionable linen dress and sits on such a busy street, no one will think she is an ordinary person!" Ying Li lifted the neat bangs on her forehead, and two dimples appeared on her face, and explained to me.
No matter where she is, Ledie is used to standing straight like a javelin, like a knight. She is a pretty girl with a heroic and pretty look. Of course, she will attract attention wherever she goes.
I reached out and scratched Yingli's nose, and said to her: "Although she doesn't have pointed ears, she looks a bit like an elf. Girls with elf blood are naturally not ordinary people."
Maybe because she drank a little wine, Yingli's face was a little red. She held her face with both hands and looked a little tipsy.
Yingli said: "Yes, she is so beautiful. Everyone only needs to take a look at her face to think that she is very elegant, at least she will be a noble lady."
Then she seemed to be self-deprecating, holding her face with a distressed look, and said: "She is as beautiful as a white swan, and I am just an ugly duckling. No matter where I am, I will not be noticed."
Yingli would not say this normally. She might be a little drunk, or she might have thought a lot about what happened during the day.
"Do you really want to live a life that is the center of attention?" I stared at her with wide eyes, and my voice unconsciously rose a little.
Ying Li shrugged her shoulders, smiled shyly, and said to me: "I think about it sometimes! Then I think, hey! Ying Li, you are also a princess, an ordinary princess!"
I took a long breath: "I thought you liked this kind of life very much."
Ying Li looked at me with a smile and said: "I like this kind of life very much, but sometimes I have a little idea, and then I envy Le Die."
I said: "If you tell Le Die these words, I think she will be happy for at least the whole day."
"No!" she said.
She smiled lightly and spoke softly.
Occasionally, she would be a little stubborn.
The four of us sat around the small square table. Ying Li and I sat face to face, Becky sat next to Ying Li, and Helena sat next to me.
At this time, Helena rested her head on my shoulder without saying a word, closed her eyes, and blinked her long eyelashes slightly.
Whenever this happened, some of the eyes around her who secretly looked at her would consciously restrain a lot. She had gotten used to the feeling that no matter where she went, there would always be people secretly watching her, and she would not be bothered by it.
This summer vacation is about to end, and Ying Li has been living in the lakeside manor in recent days.
So before midnight, I sent Ying Li, Helena and Becky to the magic caravan so that they could return to the prince's mansion before the time agreed with Mrs. Manda.
…
Watching the magic carriage of the Prince's Mansion disappear in the bustling streets, I suddenly found myself standing in front of the familiar tailor shop window. The lilac-colored long skirt was still quietly placed there. I didn't see what was special about this long skirt, so I couldn't help but move my feet and wanted to get closer to see it more clearly. The place where I stood was exactly where Ying Li had just stood.
The lights on the street were dim, but the magic chandelier in the tailor shop seemed brightly lit.
At this time, I suddenly understood why Ying Li had been standing there in a daze. Of course, the long skirt had no attraction to her. As a princess of the Angelbold royal family, the clothes she wore were tailored by a special tailor, but Ying Li specifically asked that the clothes she wore on a daily basis be simpler.
When Ying Li just looked at the tailor shop window, because of the refraction of light, he could see himself clearly through the glass window, but not the lilac dress...
The maid in the tailor shop opened the door again, stood there quietly, looked at me with a smile, nodded to me very politely, did not come forward to sell, and did not turn around and leave in a hurry.
I suddenly found that from the look in the maid's eyes, she seemed to have mistaken me for an ordinary young man, and the reason why she stood in front of the window was because she could not afford this long dress, so she was so hesitant and hesitant.
At this time, a little idea came to my mind, that is, I suddenly wanted to buy this dress, even if it was just for the maid in the tailor shop to get a little commission. When the maid saw me approaching her, she suddenly waved her hand at me in a very subtle way. When I wanted to enter the tailor shop, she reminded me in the slightest voice: "The season will change in a few days. There will be some autumn clothes on the counter and window of the store. At that time, the skirt will have some discounts. If you want to buy it, you can wait a little longer..."
I stopped and looked at the maid standing at the door of the tailor shop. Staring at a lady like this, even if the other party is just a maid in the tailor shop, this behavior is very polite. When she was stared at by me, her face slowly turned red, and she glared at me with a little anger. The meaning in her eyes was clearly to make me a little "self-aware"!
I almost brushed past her. The boss in the tailor shop found someone approaching the shop and hurriedly greeted me with a smile.
The boss was very enthusiastic, but she didn't have as many thoughts as the maid at the door. She kept asking about my needs and working hard to sell the clothes in the store.
I didn't bargain with the shop owner. After all, it was just a woolen skirt that only cost six silver coins.
When I paid, I thought the maid standing at the door of the tailor shop would think I was a fool.
Well, it doesn't matter how they look at me. In fact, I'm going to do something even more stupid next.
The tailor shop owner was naturally more enthusiastic when she saw that I bought the long skirt so readily. She asked me if I wanted it wrapped and promised to give me a beautiful box. She could even tie a silk ribbon on the box to make the gift more exquisite.
Facing the tailor shop owner's courtesy, I just waved my hand indifferently.
Then, I walked directly to the door of the tailor shop with the lilac-colored imitation court long skirt in one hand and stuffed the long skirt into the arms of the maid who was a little stunned.
"This is for you! Just think of it as a few silver coins I picked up when I went out in the morning. I wish you a good mood tonight..."
After that, I pushed open the wooden door of the tailor shop and quickly merged into the crowd on the street.
…
Finally, I finished dealing with the affairs of Qige Trading Company before noon. Another magic airship from Gurudin Town arrived at the airport town. A large amount of supplies were waiting for the person in charge of the trading company to receive them. Alia and Betty took the magic caravan to the airport town in the morning, so I was responsible for handling the daily affairs here today.
As the news of the victory of the Yelo plane was constantly confirmed, the buying craze of canned luncheon meat and meat floss bricks in the imperial capital almost reached a peak. After buying a batch of canned luncheon meat, some lords who wanted to give it a try found that the canned meat in Qige Trading Company was almost sold out, so they found that this statement was actually very reasonable.
‘Why are the wolf cavalry of the orcs so powerful? It’s because the marching rations during the war are this kind of canned luncheon meat! ’
Under such a craze, those who originally had no desire to buy would also think that the canned luncheon meat is so popular, there must be something magical about it.
When you have the desire to buy, you will pay attention unconsciously. Then you will find that there are so many people buying canned luncheon meat. In this way, people will be more and more determined that those rumors must have some truth. Otherwise, why do others choose to believe it?
As the imported goods of the Orc Tribe are hot again, the warehouse inventory of the business is sold out again.
In this way, the fragile supply and marketing chain of the business is suddenly reflected. After all, although air transportation is convenient, the cost to be borne is also very high. If it were not for the high value-added corpse fire oil in the transported materials, canned luncheon meat would not be able to share such a high transportation cost.
After dealing with a lot of trivial matters, I thought that I had made an appointment with Ying Li to go to the Royal Magic Academy, so I took the magic caravan to the lakeside manor.
The housekeeper took me to Ying Li's room. She sat in front of the dressing table in the room, staring blankly at herself in the mirror.
Seeing me come in, she cheered up. Seeing that her eyes were a little dark and she looked listless, I felt that the mermaid princess incident still brought her a lot of pressure.
Standing behind her, holding her shoulders with both hands, I said to Ying Li: "Throw away those worries and do what you want. No matter what decision you make, I will accompany you."
Ying Li turned her head and looked at me with great emotion. At this time, I felt that she had already thought about what to do.
"I will go with you. With me by your side, no matter where we go, I am sure I can bring you back!" I touched her face and said to her.
She didn't nod or shake her head, but just looked at me with moved eyes.
"Everyone is persuading me not to pay attention to the Janna ambassador. I know you don't agree with it, right?" Ying Li looked a little haggard.
I nodded and said to her, "I just think that Ambassador Janna has hidden a lot of things from us, and he is not worthy of our trust."
Ying Li held my hand and said to me, "I want to go to the Endless Sea. In fact, it is not to take back the things that originally belonged to me. I just want to know what she had experienced before, so that she would be so desperate..."
...
Ying Li stood next to the large fountain in the square of the Royal Magic Academy. Water curtains overlapped in the pool, forming a colorful rainbow in the sun.
