Princess Louise's eyes seemed to be intoxicated. She looked at Hussein infatuatedly. The two had known each other for a long time before Hussein withdrew his eyes: "After returning to the imperial capital, I will take you back to the palace."
"..." As soon as these words came out, the princess's face immediately changed. The anxiety in her eyes returned and she lowered her voice: "But...but..."
Louise is worried about something.
She loves Hussein, and she knows this very clearly. She also knows that Hussein loves her, although this man is not good at expressing it.
After learning that Hussein finally got rid of the wanted order, she was sincerely happy for Hussein.
But now, as she was getting closer and closer to the imperial capital, she began to worry about another thing!
I...what should we do?
Louise knows that she is a princess! A princess of the royal family! But as a princess, the marriage waiting for her must be to marry a famous man, a nobleman! Become a marriage tool between the royal family and the nobles!
Even if his brother, who is the regent, loves him no matter how much, this love has limits, and he may allow himself to choose a husband within a certain tolerance range.
But... Hussein can't!
Although there is no wanted warrant, he is already a legally "dead person"! Even if he changes his identity... his status is too low! The royal family will not tolerate marrying a princess to a person without status!
People who love each other always have a tacit understanding. Seeing Louise's face turn gloomy, Hussein certainly understood what she was thinking.
However, the Holy Knight, who was not good at sweet words, expressed his feelings directly in the simplest words!
"Louise, don't worry." Hussein said solemnly: "No one can stop us! I promise."
No one doubts Hussein's will! If the royal family wants to stop it, the paladin will definitely pull out his sword and snatch the princess out of the palace. Then he would rather take her around the world!
Just when the couple was about to perform a painful love scene, a lazy voice, which was very inconsistent with the scene at the moment, came from the front of the road.
"Good morning, my loyal tulip knights, the weather is really nice today."
Hussein's eyes twitched and he turned to look ahead on the road, only to see a guy standing in the middle of the road.
Du Wei held the horse's reins in his hand and was dressed in plain clothes. He had a fat robe on his body. He looked a little lazy. He squinted his eyes and seemed to be enjoying the warmth of the sun.
The knights in front saw the appearance of the Duke and immediately stopped their horses. After a roar, all the knights turned over and dismounted and stood in awe. Then they neatly performed a knight's salute.
Du Wei nodded, loosened the reins, and allowed a subordinate to come over to help him take away the horse. He walked through the horse team and came to the princess's carriage. He looked at the radiant Hussein in front of him.
Du Wei smiled, and he smiled sincerely.
He saw the changes in Hussein. This man was finally no longer as cold as ice and his face was full of gloom.
Hussein now seems to be full of vitality and fighting spirit!
This is what a man in his thirties should look like! Instead of the gloomy old man before.
Moreover, he saw the happiness hidden in Hussein's eyes. As Hussein's friend, Du Wei felt happy for his old friend from the bottom of his heart.
"Oh my god, Hussein." Du Wei laughed: "You look so handsome now. I think the girls in the imperial capital will be fascinated by you. Look! You really look like a handsome man now.
Proud knight. God, I should have put you in such an outfit a long time ago."
With that said, Du Wei deliberately took a few steps closer, blinked, and laughed softly: "How does love feel like?"
Hussein closed his mouth and said nothing, but the princess in the carriage suddenly blushed with embarrassment.
"Oh, I have met Her Highness the Princess." Du Wei nodded to the Princess carelessly, which was regarded as a salute.
Then, he still looked directly at Hussein. He looked at him carefully for a while. A sincere smile gradually appeared in Du Wei's eyes. Then he leaned over and hugged Hussein hard!
His hug was so warm that even if Hussein's hard armor hurt Du Wei's bones, he didn't care!
"My friend, I like the way you look now, you should be a hero standing in the sun!!" Du Wei smiled in Hussein's ear.
Hussein was silent for a while, and he also hugged Du Wei forcefully. However, thousands of words turned into only one sentence.
"Thanks!"
When Hussein said this, his voice was extremely serious!
"I'm sorry, my friend." Du Wei pulled Hussein aside and whispered: "I rushed out of the city to pick you up so early in the morning. Actually, I wanted to trouble you to do something for me."
Hussein said nothing and listened quietly.
"You can't go into the city now, oh, no, no, it's not that something unexpected happened." Du Wei sighed: "Don't worry. There's just one thing I need to do alone, and now I can't leave without the people around me.
, I’m afraid only you can do this well.”
"Say it." Hussein's hand was already pressing the hilt of the sword.
Du Wei quickly revealed a person's life: "In his forties, he is a garrison commander in Ziye City in the south. His strength is about level five or six, but it doesn't matter. It's the same to you. I
What we want is...this person must die."
Hussein said nothing, his face was calm, waiting for Du Wei to finish.
"Moreover, what I need is speed. I want you to help me go and kill this guy and bring his head to the imperial capital to see me. Moreover, this matter must be done quickly and in a low-key manner... I mean low-key.
You understand."
Du Wei said, taking out the magic tool of the flying cloak from his arms, and handed it to Hussein: "Time has to go quickly, riding a horse is too slow, so I will give this to you. If you can get it within a few days,
It’s best to come back soon.”
"Don't worry, no one will know how he died." Hussein took the cloak: "I'm going to go now, you...send Louise back to the palace."
"Thank you for your hard work, my friend." Du Wei smiled: "But when you come back, I will give you a big surprise."
Hussein didn't pay much attention to Duwei's last words. He immediately went to lead the horse. After all, he was a rough-looking man, and he didn't even go to the carriage to say goodbye to Louise.
He only knew that Du Wei was very anxious, otherwise Du Wei would not have come outside the city to meet him and asked him to do this immediately.
"Wait a minute." Du Wei watched Hussein turn around to lead the horse. Suddenly he felt strange: "Hussein, don't you have any questions for me?"
"What's the question?"
Du Wei shook his head: "I want you to kill people, and assassinate them. Brother...don't you ask this guy if he is a bad person and whether he should die?"
Hussein suddenly smiled and looked at Du Wei: "I trust you."
As he said that, as he led the horse past Du Wei, the Paladin paused. His voice was very soft, but extremely serious.
"Duwei. Thank you for letting me... return to the sunshine."
Watching Hussein galloping away, Du Wei sighed. He was really touched just now. This man as hard as stone... occasionally stirs up emotions, it's really surprising.
Turning around, Duwei came to the side of the carriage. Princess Louise was looking at Hussein's retreating figure in the distance on the road.
"I'm sorry, Your Highness." Du Wei smiled: "Because there was something urgent. So he didn't even say goodbye to you..."
"It doesn't matter." Princess Louise nodded. Her eyes at this moment were like a gentle and considerate wife looking at her husband going away. She smiled softly: "Men, there are always men's things, I can understand it.
.”
With that said, Princess Louise smiled at Duwei: "Your Excellency, you can get on the carriage with me. I happen to have something to talk to you about on the way."
Du Wei smiled and did not refuse the invitation.
But after getting on the carriage and the team moved forward again, Princess Louise immediately closed the window. Then she turned to look at Du Wei, and suddenly said slowly in a serious tone: "Your Excellency, I have a problem now, and,
I feel that you must help me solve this problem! Moreover, you should be responsible for this matter in the first place!"
"...What?" Du Wei asked with a smile.
Louise took a deep breath, a shy blush appeared on her face, and then she said in a deep voice, "I want to marry Hussein!"
When she finished saying this, she was obviously a little emotional, but seeing Duwei's seemingly unresponsive appearance, Princess Louise became a little angry.
"Say something, Your Majesty the Duke!" Louise gritted her teeth: "Isn't this exactly the result you want to see!"
Du Wei was still pretending to be stupid: "I don't know what you are talking about."
"You!" Princess Louise was angry: "Although I am not as scheming as Miss Delly, I am not a fool either! My dear Duke! Don't think I haven't noticed that, starting from the time we were in Gilliat City, you
Just trying to bring me and Hussein together..." When she said this, Louise's cheeks turned red, but she continued bravely, forcing Du Wei with her eyes: "Although I don't know what you are going to do.
Why. But I don’t care so much! But the problem now is that you deliberately matched the two of us! And the result is that I did fall in love with him! I love him! Yes, I believe he loves me too
!But Lord Duke, you should know that my identity is a big obstacle to this matter!!"
Duwei chuckled and looked at Louise's anxious face.
"You arranged these deliberately, so now, this problem should also be solved by you!" Louise looked at Duwei bitterly.
"Okay." Du Wei raised his hands: "You want to marry him?"
"Yes...yes!" Louise mustered up her courage, but then she felt a little uneasy: "But, you know, my brother, His Royal Highness the Regent, originally planned to let me marry you. Even if he doesn't marry you, he He will definitely marry me to some other big nobleman. I am even worried that he will arrange to marry me to that Alpai! I heard that your political enemy is very popular recently."
"Don't worry, what you said will never happen."
Du Wei patted his chest and promised: "I will find a way to make your wish come true. Believe me, Hussein will marry you."
"Then you'd better hurry up!" Louise gritted her teeth: "You know, I'm already eighteen years old! At my age, a princess like me should have decided to get married long ago! I can't delay it too long Time! I am even worried that when I return to the imperial capital this time, my brother will immediately arrange a marriage for me."
"Your worries... will not happen." Du Wei assured inscrutably.
He was very relieved.
Now, the regent's mind is filled with how to deal with the issue of succession to the throne after the sudden death of the old emperor. Recently, Du Wei's plan to set up a scheme to force young Prince Charles to inherit the throne is about to begin.
At this time, how could the regent think about getting his sister married?
Apart from anything else, it shouldn't be a problem to delay it for a few months... Especially if the news of the old emperor's death is revealed soon, then according to custom, the old emperor has just passed away. As a child, it is hard to hold a wedding right away.
As long as we can successfully delay it for a few months or a year and a half, then with the beginning of the war, this matter will turn around!
The carriage went all the way into the city and took Princess Louise directly to the palace.
Before leaving, Louise gave Du Wei a deep look: "Please remember your promise!"
"I will make your wish come true." Du Wei vowed seriously: "Hussein is my friend, and I also hope that he will be happy."
Seeing Princess Louise leave with a worried look on her face, Duwei sighed.
...it’s not easy to be a matchmaker!
Du Wei is still very busy.
The tournament is just a cover. The purpose of this matter is to arrange a clever opportunity to solve the problem of succession to the throne!
In the afternoon, he immediately ran to the east of the empire city... Roland Continent Magic Guild!
For Du Wei, all the firewood has been piled up, and now, what is needed is to finally light a fire!
