On the second day after entering Golden Light City, Reggie made a request to Sophia to take over Hanfeng Fortress.
Sophia looked at Reggie with a sad face and said with a hint of resentment: "Are you so anxious to leave me?"
"I am indeed in a hurry, Your Majesty the Queen. I have been away from the territory for a long time, and there are still many things waiting for me to deal with in Broken Snow City."
"After you leave, you will never come back, right?"
"Your Majesty the Queen, you will eventually ascend the throne of Bayer. If I receive your invitation, I will visit you often."
This sentence disappointed Sophia and strengthened her determination to break up with Reggie.
"If you get Han Maple Fortress, our alliance will be terminated, right?"
"Of course not," Reggie said with a smile, "I will still provide you with help, weapons, food, and gold coins. I will do my best to help you. Of course, this also requires some reward."
"What kind of reward do you want me to use gold coins to buy gold coins?"
"This is not a bad idea. The premise is that the interest must be calculated and you can also use other things to pay off the debt, such as ore. I heard that the iron ore and copper mines in Bayer Country are very rich. Of course, if you are willing to use
If you use land to pay off your debt..."
"Stop coveting the land of Bayer Country!" Reggie's words angered Sophia. She tried her best to control her emotions, forced a smile and said, "I will arrange the handover of Hanfeng Fortress in three days.
How do you feel?"
Reggie nodded and said, "I think this time is very suitable."
"Before that, I will hold a farewell party for you. You can bring all your followers. I hope you will not leave early this time."
Sophia was extremely disappointed and left Reggie's bedroom. She didn't consider what Reggie should get. She only found Reggie's greedy face very disgusting.
On the night of the banquet, Sophia only brought Prime Minister Romell. Without the scorn and roars of those lords, Reggie felt much more relaxed.
Natalie, Modesa, Dolanor and Tortosa, all the people around Reggie attended the banquet. After a few glasses of wine, the tipsy Sofia became bolder than usual and hugged Reggie.
Dancing together, although her dance steps were terrible, she and Reggie made many crazy moves, those moves were enough to make Tortosa blush and even drive Natalie crazy.
After dancing a few songs, Sophia, who was covered in sweat, poured two glasses of wine, brought one of them to Natalie, and said with a smile: "Are you jealous, little girl?"
Natalie looked at Sophia angrily and turned her face aside.
"Don't be like this, I'm about to lose him," Sophia looked at Reggie in the distance with a look of reluctance, "He and I have our own destiny. We are destined not to stay together for life. The one who should be jealous is
I, at least you can always stay with him."
Looking at Sophia's red eyes, Natalie was a little moved and even somewhat sympathized with her.
This is really crazy, a commoner is actually sympathizing with a queen, but Sophia's sadness is indeed not fake, her tears are really sad.
"May the gods bless you, Her Majesty the Queen." This was the first time Natalie called Sophia the queen. She drank the wine in the glass, and the strong smell of wine made her cough for a while.
"It's different from the ones in Broken Snow City, right?" Sophia smiled, "The wine in Bayer Country is stronger. This may be my last night with him. Don't be angry with me again tonight, good girl.
, may the gods bless you too.”
Natalie bit her lip, although she was very reluctant, but she did not stop Sophia and Reggie's intimacy.
After the banquet, Sophia was still tired of staying in Reggie's arms and refused to leave. She wanted to give Reggie a perfect night, but Reggie refused.
"Your Majesty, I am too tired. The wine in Bayer Country is too strong. Please allow me to have a good night's sleep."
"Heartless guy!" Sophia pushed Reggie away and said with a disappointed look on her face, "Go away, go back to your room, don't let me see you again."
After returning to the room, Reggie began to organize his plan, and there were still some details that needed to be perfected. After reading a page, he had to hide a page. He had to be very careful, as Sophia might slip through the wall at any time.
come out.
He was lucky tonight. Sophia didn't show up until late at night. The tired Reggie stretched himself and was about to go to sleep when he heard a knock on the door.
Since the beauty is determined to throw herself into her arms, she shouldn't just reject her.
"Your Majesty the Queen, if you think the time is really right, I am also willing to spend the night with you."
"It's me, master."
It's Doranor.
Reggie opened the door and said with an awkward smile: "Old wizard, it's so late, do you have anything special to do?"
Doranor said: "Master, something seems wrong with Miss Rude. I heard some strange noises, but I dare not break into her room."
Reggie was startled and hurried to Natalie's room. At the door, he heard Natalie's vomiting.
Drinking too much? It doesn’t seem to be that simple.
"Natalie, open the door."
"S-Sir..." came a response from inside, followed by more violent vomiting.
"Oh my God, what happened?" Reggie lowered his shoulders and rushed over. He wanted to open the door, but he underestimated the quality of the construction of Bayer Country.
The door didn't open, and Reggie fell to the ground in pain, clutching his shoulders.
"Master, are you okay?"
"No, not good at all," Reggie shouted, "open the door!"
Doranor used witchcraft, and it was easy for him to move a door. When he entered the room, Reggie saw Natalie lying on the fishy vomit, gasping for air.
"Get some water quickly!" Reggie stepped forward and hugged Natalie. From just a few symptoms, he could tell that Natalie was poisoned.
Where does poison come from?
It’s easy to guess that this is Sophia’s wine.
Reggie washed Natalie's stomach with water. Modessa smelled the vomit and said: "It's gray fish grass, a highly poisonous herb. This thing has a fishy smell. If anyone dares to give me this
Plant poison and I can smell it right away."
Doranor nodded and said, "I can smell it too."
Reggie had seen gray fish grass at the bachelor's house. The pungent smell was stronger than raw fish. It was pitiful that Natalie was tricked by such a despicable method.
"Do you know how to detoxify it?"
The two men shook their heads, and Modesa said: "In the Golden Eagle Kingdom, gray fish grass is one of the ways to execute nobles. People who are poisoned can live for at most one day and one night."
"Go back to Broken Snow City immediately," Reggie picked up Natalie, "call everyone and set off in a hot air balloon!"
Dolanor stopped Reggie: "Master, without Natalie, our hot air balloon would probably..."
Reggie licked his lips. It seemed that he could only leave the hot air balloon in Cotai City.
"Use your witchcraft, Doranor, to open up the nearest road. We must rush back to Shattering Snow City before dawn."
After simply packing up his things, Reggie rushed to the castle gate with Natalie in his arms, where Sophia and a team of people were waiting for him at the gate.
"Viscount Victor, why did you leave without saying goodbye?" Sophia, wearing military uniform and riding a war horse, looked at Reggie coldly.
"It seems I was rude," Reggie's expression was equally cold, "I also want to say goodbye to you decently, but I'm really worried that you will hang my head on the city gate."
"Regino De Victor, do you know how poisonous your mouth is?"
"Is it more poisonous than your wine?"
"If I wanted to kill you, I would have done it long ago."
"It seems I should thank you for your kindness, Her Majesty."
"Give up Hanfeng Fortress and I can help you save this girl."
Reggie remained silent, hesitating whether to believe Sophia's words.
"Don't believe her," Modessa whispered, "There is no cure for Gray Dragon Grass. We must leave here as soon as possible."
Reggie was silent for a while, looked at Sophia and said: "If you think you can kill me, you can try it now. If you don't want to do it, please get out of the way."
The cold murderous aura rushed towards Reggie, Modeza, and Doranor. The murderous aura on them all made people shudder.
The two sides were in a stalemate for a while, and Sophia asked the soldiers to give way.
"Let's go." Sophia's voice was trembling. She was not afraid of Reggie, but she was reluctant to let him go.
If possible, she really wanted to hug Reggie one more time.
"In three days, I will go to Hanfeng Fortress to find you," Reggie whispered as he passed by Sophia, "Remember to wait for me there."
"I'm sorry, I'm the queen," Sophia bit her lip, "I can't give up the kingdom's land."
"Yes, you are the queen," Reggie nodded and said through gritted teeth, "You will be a good queen. I really think you are very talented."
