Although Sophie is a fifth-level great magician and looks very mature in behavior, she is actually still a little girl who is only 8 years old, so Jia Zhengjin didn't doubt it at all when he asked her to show off her magic power.
But she also has a temper: "My magic is not for show!"
"It's not a performance, it's just to prove your strength!" Jia Zhengjin said with a smile, "Although you are a princess, if you want to be a guest in my Holy Dragon City, you need to follow my rules! Just like if I go to Salvi
The Kingdom of Sri Lanka should also abide by the laws of your country, the reason is the same!"
After hearing Jia Zhengjin's words, Sophie lowered her head and thought for a moment before replying: "You are right!"
"Then prove it!" Jia Zhengjin said with a smile, "Activate the image inside!"
"Since we want to see the proof, then I will grant your request!" Sophie took the magic stone and gently held it in her hand. Injecting some magic power into it, the magician immediately shot out a fan-shaped light upward. The light
In the middle, an old man wearing a royal robe and a crown appeared.
Although he is said to be an old man, he is actually only about 50 or 60 years old. He just has a long beard on his face, so he looks older.
"Wow!" The moment they saw the image, Polibochi and all the members of his caravan immediately knelt down on one knee, bowed their heads respectfully and remained motionless.
At that moment, only Jia Zhengjin and Princess Sophie were standing face to face.
"Dear Mr. Keen, the Lord of Holy Dragon City," the image spoke to Jia Zhengjin like a real person, "I am the King of Sarvis! For some unspeakable reasons, I have to temporarily ask for your help! I
It is not convenient for my beloved Sophie to return to China now. Although we do not know each other, we have always heard that Lord Keen, the Lord of Holy Dragon City, is unparalleled in kindness and has a broad mind that tolerates everything..."
Who spread these rumors? Jia Zhengjin’s mouth twitched.
The image was one-sided, so naturally it would not react to his expression, but continued: "It may be a bit abrupt, but I hope to keep Sophie in the Holy Dragon City temporarily, and ask Lord Keen to protect her during this period.
Her safety! As soon as our domestic issues are resolved, we will take her home immediately! We will be grateful afterwards. No matter what Mr. Keen wants, even if we devote the whole country's efforts, we will definitely pay it back!"
The image disappeared at this point. Polibochi and the people in the caravan fell to their knees and then slowly stood up.
"Uh-huh!" Sophie, the little lolita, waited for the image to disappear, then looked up at Jia Zhengjin with an impatient expression, "Is it okay now? You don't want me to continue to prove it, do you?"
Jia Zhengjin couldn't help but feel disgusted when he saw how big a brat she was. If a girl in his grade had behaved like this, he would have been driven away based on his temperament!
It can be seen from Sophie's expression and attitude that she is not unfamiliar with this image at all. It means that she must have seen it several times before this.
To be honest, Jia Zhengjin didn't really want to keep this little princess. Because her behavior revealed a kind of royal arrogance and pride, and she didn't even take Polibochi and the others in her eyes. If she didn't have the Holy Dragon,
The identity of the city lord is probably no different from other people in her eyes, and her attitude will be completely different when the time comes.
Besides, who is spreading rumors outside? How can I be so benevolent and tolerant of everything? It sounds so nice, but it is actually just one word - a good old man!
Of course Jia Zhengjin is not a good guy, nor does he bother to be a good guy!
However, King Salvis said that he devoted all his country's efforts to satisfy one of his requests. It is impossible to lie, right? After all, he is the king of a country, and he still has a video recording what he said.
Jia Zhengjin thought hard for a moment and couldn't help but turn around and ask Polibochi who stood up softly: "Hey! Is your Salvis Kingdom rich?"
"It's not bad!" Poliboqi didn't understand why Jia Zhengjin had this problem, so he thought for a moment and replied, "Although the overall strength of our kingdom is actually not ranked first on the mainland, in terms of the country's wealth, it is at least
It can also be ranked in the top thirty or so! In terms of economy, it is considered an above-average country!"
"Above average?" Jia Zhengjin nodded slightly, then there is no problem! In this case, if he later asked the Kingdom of Salvis for several million gold coins, then it must not be a problem, right? He himself said that he would devote all his efforts to the country
Well! It’s just a few million gold coins. It doesn’t require the efforts of the whole country. The nobles can just chip in! Isn’t a few million too few? Or will it be 10 million gold coins by then? It’s up to them.
Will the national treasury be able to get it? Will people in the country actually chip in the money?
"Lord Keen? Sir Keen?" When Jia Zhengjin was confused about how to determine the reward, Polipochi interrupted his thoughts.
"What are you doing?" Jia Zhengjin came back to his senses. He was imagining the fun of counting gold coins and was a little unhappy when he was suddenly interrupted.
"Do you think it would be possible to invite our Lady Sophie into the city to rest first?" Polipochi said respectfully, "She has been traveling with the caravan every day recently and has suffered a lot. She also has a poor appetite and has lost weight!
"
Jia Zhengjin glanced at Sophie, who was still a little chubby, and thought to herself that this could also be called emaciation? But after all, she was also a guest, and he remembered that he could ask the Salvis Kingdom for a sky-high protection fee in the future, and he would not worry about them not paying it.
He immediately smiled and said: "Of course! I immediately arranged for the best accommodation and at the same time set up a banquet for Princess Sophie! There is no other place in Shenglong City, but the most delicious food."
"Great!" Polipochi breathed a sigh of relief. He was originally worried about what would happen if Lord Keen did not agree to keep Lady Sophie. It was impossible for the caravan to carry Lady Sophie all the time, because if they really encountered that
The caravan's guards cannot handle the band of thieves who want to assassinate Lady Sophie!
"Okay, everyone, follow me into the city first!" Jia Zhengjin said loudly, "Everyone has a good rest today, and we will talk about important things tomorrow! Walk up! Walk up! Drive all the carriages to the city!"
"Wait a minute!" Polipochi and his caravan started to move, but the little loli Sophie looked at Jia Zhengjin with an unhappy face, "Where is my pick-up horse?"
"What? What are you going to do?" Jia Zhengjin looked confused when he heard this.
"Picking up a mount means picking up a mount!" Sophie, the little lolita, raised her head and said to her displeasedly, "Do you want me to walk in? This would be too rude!"
Is it too rude to walk in? Jia Zhengjin was speechless. Who didn't walk in by himself? He turned to look at Polibochi.
"Lord Keen," Polibochi came over with a wry smile and said softly to him, "Sorry! I forgot about this. Our royal family does have such a welcome ceremony. Before any prince or princess returns to the palace, they must use their backs
War horses covered with red cloth or earth dragon mounts will carry them back! However, generally the princes and princesses outside will follow the local customs and will not be constrained by this. It’s just that our Lady Sophie is young and has a persistent personality. Do you think you can do it a little bit?
Just make do?"
"It's so troublesome..." If Jia Zhengjin hadn't been thinking about the rewards from the Salvis Kingdom, he wouldn't have paid attention to this little loli!
