Chapter 30: The Strongman's Difficulties

Alvin had eaten and drank well last night. When he woke up and thought about the important things he had to do today, he got up and got dressed. Before he could leave the bedroom door, the housekeeper knocked on the door and said there was a guest in the outer hall.

Been waiting for a while.

Alvin shook his head and went straight to the front hall, where he found Langyun already waiting for him.

"You came so early." Alvin sighed.

"Your Highness, you asked me to come here early in the morning. Have you forgotten?" Lang Yun said with a helpless smile.

Alvin also nodded helplessly. It was difficult to say that he was talking nonsense while drunk. Besides, he was going to do business with him, so he didn't say much.

Last night, several people in Laiwu complained that Alvin's tasks were too light, and they reassigned a lot of work to Alvin. The task of purchasing supplies and luggage for these hundreds of people suddenly fell on Alvin. He still had to go and do it.

To print out the military flag of the Quartet Mercenary Regiment, this flag must be submitted to the Military Affairs Office for use.

Anyway, all kinds of bits and pieces of work were handed over to Alvin last night, which made him quite annoyed. Fortunately, Langyun offered to be his deputy in time, so Alvin didn't have a fit on the spot. Originally, Xia Ye also wanted to come.

, was pulled by Laiwu and had to go to the racecourse to audit the people behind him.

The two of them realized that they had too many things to do today, so they skipped breakfast and left directly. As soon as they left the Earl's Palace, they were blocked by a fine oak carriage.

As soon as the car door opened, a female magician in gray robe stepped out.

She walked up to Alvin, took a look, and asked in a low voice: "Are you Alvin? Alvin Feili?"

Alvin nodded.

"Follow me, someone wants to see you." The gray-robed female mage handed a finely crafted wooden box to Alvin's hand, then turned around and returned to the car, her posture was very straightforward.

Alvin opened the wooden box and saw that it was a handkerchief. He took a slight sniff and realized who he was going to see.

Before he left, he handed a bag of runes to Langyun and told him to handle things carefully. According to Alvin's understanding, Langyun must be much better at doing these small things than he is.

Langyun nodded in agreement, watching the carriage that Alvin was riding in go away, and secretly sighed, "His Highness really has many lovers."

--------------------------------------------------

------------------

The carriage turned onto Phoenix Street and went straight to the palace. This was what Alvin expected. After the palace guards saw the token in the hand of the gray-robed female mage, they just made a routine inspection and let it go. There was no

Difficult.

Generally, in the palace, only the king can drive in a carriage. He did not expect that holding the princess's token would also have such privileges. Thinking of the princess's status in the king's heart, Alvin secretly sighed. For someone like him,

For someone who only had the opportunity to visit the palace in a few years, the honor of riding a carriage through the palace avenue was a bit hard for him to accept for a while.

The carriage stopped in front of a quiet and unique palace. Alvin followed the gray-robed mage quickly from the hall to the door of the princess's room on the second floor. Along the way, many palace attendants looked surprised when they saw Alvin.

The gray-robed mage stood guard outside the door, letting Alvin go in alone.

When he opened the door, his breathing became rapid, and he took a deep breath to pretend to calm down. Whether it was because of nervousness or excitement, his hands were shaking constantly.

After entering the room, he finally saw the woman he had been thinking about these days. He saw her leaning in front of the carved window, wrapped in a thick velvet sweater, but it could not hide her exquisite figure. Her snowy hair

The luster of the past has faded away, the golden eyes are full of weariness, and there is no blood at all on the lips.

Alvin just looked at her quietly, not knowing what to say for a moment. He must also know that she saw that "momentary ice flame".

"Your Highness." Alvin hesitated before speaking.

"Here you come?" Onian didn't turn around to look at him, and whispered, "Sit down."

Alvin sat down on the single sofa near the window.

But just after saying this, the princess covered her mouth and started coughing. When Alvin saw this, he wanted to get up, but she waved her hand to indicate to Alvin to continue.

Sitting.

"I have something to tell you." Onian said lightly, still looking out the window.

"What's the matter? Your Highness," Alvin asked.

"The war ahead is urgent. My father will lead his army to Maine tomorrow to fight against the Tingxiao people." Onian said softly.

Alvin nodded, thinking that His Majesty was very efficient in mobilizing the army.

"I have begged my father several times, but he did not want to take me to the front line." The princess then turned to look at Alvin, "I have spoken to Teacher Piro several times, and he also asked me to take me to Salyuxi.

Recuperate in peace."

"What do you mean, Your Highness?" Alvin looked at Onian's face. He thought that the princess must have been seriously injured this time, otherwise she wouldn't look so haggard.

"I heard that you and your friends who were not doing their jobs formed a mercenary group?" Onian asked with raised eyebrows.

"Your Highness, don't you mean to say..." Alvin was taken aback.

Onian nodded, "Yes, my father and teacher are not willing to take me with them, so I can only find you."

"How is this possible, Your Highness?" Alvin stood up anxiously, "You have not recovered from your serious injury. If anything goes wrong along the way, I..."

"Have you forgotten how many times I saved you?" Onian looked at Alvin coldly and said.

Alvin choked back at this sentence. The princess saved him from danger several times during the Pillow Sword Club. He has not repaid this kindness. He lowered his head and did not dare to reply. After all, seeing the princess's current physical condition

, it was really not suitable for him to go on an expedition with the army. He thought to himself that if something happened along the way, His Majesty the King and Master Piro would definitely not let him go, and people like Laiwu would probably be implicated as well.

"Don't worry, I'm feeling much better now. I won't drag you down." Onian pointed out Alvin's thoughts.

"Your Highness, please stop bluffing me. Your lips are as white as if they were covered with flour. How could you look so much better now?" Alvin asked anxiously.

"Then what do you want? Do you think I'm here to discuss it with you?" Onian's aura changed, and there was a sharp look in her golden eyes.

Alvin was stunned by her. He had never seen Onian like this before. Even if she jumped on his shoulder and bit him last time, she didn't look like this. After the semi-finals that day, Onian looked like this.

An and he were very different from each other.

"You have to agree to this matter, or you have to agree if you don't agree to it. I'm not here to discuss it with you today at all." O'Nian stopped looking at him and turned back to look out the window, "This time, just treat it as a matter of fact.

The debt you owed me before has been cancelled."

"No, I don't understand." Alvin said doubtfully, "Why do you have to go, Your Highness, to fight the Tingxiao people this time? Are you even risking your life?"

Only when Onian thought about it, he coughed a few more times, calmed down his breath and then whispered: "Now it is claimed that Gafo Reza became like that because he was poisoned by Tingxiao people's potion, but I ask

I have contacted my father and teacher, but they have not said who did this. If I were to infer, it should be a certain minister in the court, but it should not be Prince Resa."

Alvin remembered the conversation with his father that day.

"But Prince Reza was humiliated and returned to Maine, and he will inevitably have resentment in his heart." The princess said, "My father personally led an army to Maine. Firstly, it was to defend against the invading Tingxiao people. There is also another purpose. You

What did you say?"

"Your Highness, do you mean that His Majesty still wants to...?" Alvin finally understood that the king planned to take advantage of this personal expedition to eliminate Prince Resa's power. However, he was also quite surprised that the princess would tell him this.

O'Nian didn't answer him, and sighed to herself, "So you think I can't go with you this time? It can be said that my father is waiting for the tiger to watch. There are people from Tingxiao in front of him, Prince Lesa behind, and there are

The sycophant is causing trouble."

"But princess, your injury hasn't healed yet, so there's nothing you can do if you go." Alvin advised.

Onian didn't explain much, just turned around and glared at Alvin, staring at him coldly without saying a word.

Alvin felt a chill go down his spine when she stared at him, as if someone had pulled off his clothes on such a cold day, and there were hailstones falling on his back, and he couldn't help but shudder.

"Okay, princess, let it be what you say." Alvin said helplessly, "Anyway, it's all my fault for using the Chun Lai Fox potion, otherwise, Your Highness, you wouldn't have lost half your life. I owe it all to you.

.”

Onian ignored his grievances, looked at him with her lips raised, and asked: "If my father and Prince Resa start a fight this time, what will you do if you are thinking about your girl Lan Yu?"

At home?"

"I'm a nobody, what can I do?" Alvin replied angrily. But in his heart, he thought, if that day comes, he might go looking for her alone. If there is a chance, they will escape together. If there is no chance, the worst will happen.

One piece died.

"Oh, I'm afraid you've already started planning to find her." Onian exposed him ruthlessly.

"I don't think I can hide anything from you." Alvin looked at her with an annoyed look on his face.

This may be what fascinates and scares men about smart women. Especially smart women like Onian who look like nothing else. Alvin lamented that he would probably die at the hands of such a woman sooner or later.

"Then have you ever thought about what would happen if Prince Reza wins?" Onian raised her eyes and looked at him meaningfully and asked.

He thought for a while and sighed, "Then I don't know." Then he stretched out on the sofa and smiled bitterly: "Then I'm afraid I'll have to run away with you, the exiled princess."

O'Nian couldn't help but burst into laughter after hearing this. It was the first time today that I saw such a smile on her face, "Then should I thank you? This bowl of water is quite flat."

Alvin is actually very scared in his heart. He is afraid of any situation. However, as I said before, he is just a small person. Regarding the contest between these powerful people, he is at best a humble bystander and can't change anything. Think about it.

Understanding this made Alvin very discouraged and hurt.

"Let's not talk about these things for now. I thought about it carefully. What if you are mixed up in my mercenary group of five hundred people and get to the front line and are discovered by the Tingxiao people?" Alvin frowned and asked, "You

Isn't this snow-haired and golden-eyed appearance too recognizable? When the time comes, the Tingxiao people will send a large army to encircle and suppress you. I'm afraid that you will be kidnapped by the Tingxiao people before you can help His Majesty."

"Are you stupid? You have forgotten that I have studied potions for so many years. Isn't it easy to dye my hair?" Onian laughed.

"But we are all a bunch of big men, are you planning to disguise yourself as a man then?" Alvin couldn't help but ask.

"It depends on my mood." Onian smiled and said, "As long as you and I know about this, your friends don't need to know. People talk a lot, and you don't want this news to leak out casually."

"But I'm not blind or stupid." Alvin said with wide eyes.

"Then I can't control that much, you can figure it out on your own." O'Nian acted like a rogue, but he couldn't do anything about it.

Alvin felt bitter and asked again: "Your Highness, you are so seriously injured, who will take care of you along the way? Do you need to bring some accompanying maids to take care of your daily life?"

"No, not a single one." Onian looked at Alvin teasingly and said, "This princess will be taken care of by you this time. If something happens to me on the way, you can find a way to explain it to your father.

.Besides, if I bring so many people with me, wouldn’t it be easier for others to notice me?”

Seeing Alvin's troubled look, the princess was a little proud, but before she could be proud, she started coughing violently. Alvin just wanted to help her to rest on the bed, but she slapped her hand away.

"Don't touch me, I'm not that young lady from the royal palace, just letting you knead me." Onian said coldly.

What he said just now was very nice, but in an instant this man became as cold as ice, and Alvin simply couldn't cope with it.

Onian got into bed neatly, leaving only her little face exposed.

Alvin shook his head helplessly, "Your Highness, where can we meet tomorrow?"

"Aren't you the deputy leader? You have the final say." Onian said with a wink.

"Then wait for me at the gate of the Earl's Mansion at eight o'clock in the morning?" Alvin asked after calculating the time.
