Not long after, the sound of horse hooves sounded, and a knight in silver armor rode up.
"Captain Tim!"
A group of city defense soldiers, including captain Gaton, saluted together.
Tim hummed: "What's going on? Where is that outsider with suspicious identity?"
Swish, everyone looked at Bai Xiaowen.
"Hi, Tim. Long time no see." Bai Xiaowen waved his hand.
The moment Tim saw Bai Xiaowen, his expression changed. He hurriedly dismounted from his saddle, ran to Bai Xiaowen, and performed a knight's salute: "Dear Viscount Dior, are you back? I'm sorry that I didn't greet you in advance, but asked you to
Being blocked here. I will definitely reprimand Gaton and the others."
As a city defense force, you don't even know the lord, which is really a big mistake.
Bai Xiaowen waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter. These people are doing their duty for the safety of Baishi City and should be rewarded rather than punished."
A group of city defense soldiers were stunned. After a few seconds of awkward silence, they all knelt down on one knee and apologized to Bai Xiaowen.
"You guys go on patrol. Tim, let's go to the City Lord's Mansion. We haven't seen Cecilia for a long time. How is she doing recently?" Bai Xiaowen asked.
A group of city defense troops dispersed.
Tim led the horse and followed Bai Xiaowen carefully.
"Viscount Dio, our lord has always been very good, but I miss you from time to time." Tim said. As a loyal knight, he knew about the affair between his mistress and the young viscount in front of him.
"Well, who is Baron Standing? What is his relationship with Cecilia?" Bai Xiaowen asked.
"Standine? He... I'm not very clear about his origin. As for his relationship with Lord Cecilia, we subordinates don't dare to ask. I'd rather ask Viscount Dio to ask this question himself."
Tim lowered his head, not daring to say anything.
Bai Xiaowen shook his head. He took out a picture scroll and unfolded it as he walked, shaking his head and chanting.
That's right, it comes from Xu Wei's volume "Peony Covering Leaves".
The spirit world rules prompt message: "You have admired the painting of leaf-covering peonies and recited the inscribed poem."
"Your charm increases by 20%, lasting 120 minutes."
Bai Xiaowen chuckled and put away the painting. The leaf-covering peony painting can increase the charm value by up to 30%, but the magnitude of the increase should be related to the cultural background of the plane it belongs to.
If it were in the ancient Chinese plane, the effect would probably reach the maximum value, 30%.
This is a plane with a western fantasy background. Westerners can appreciate the peony picture, but Westerners can also hear the rhyme of this poem. It feels more fluent, and the bonus percentage of charm value is lower.
If it were in a wild plane, such as a world like the Jurassic plane, the charm bonus percentage would probably drop to zero.
Tim secretly glanced at Bai Xiaowen, wondering if Viscount Dior was mad and shaking his head at a painting...
Baishi City is not big, and it didn't take long for the two of them to reach the city lord's palace in the north. They saw a luxurious carriage parked at the gate, with gold-inlaid patterns on the wheels, exuding an aura of luxury.
"This must be Baron Standing's carriage, it's quite luxurious." Bai Xiaowen said.
Tim lowered his head and said: "If Your Excellency the Viscount feels that this carriage is an eyesore, I can drive it to another place...or smash it?"
"Forget it," Bai Xiaowen waved his hand and said with a smile, "It's a pretty good car, it would be a shame if it was damaged."
Just at the moment of these few words, the door of the city lord's palace opened, and a tall and thin aristocratic young man walked out. In his hand, he also held a large bouquet of blooming red roses, which were beautiful and moving.
Winter has just passed and it's early spring. It's difficult for him to find roses. But it's easy to think about it. After all, this is a magical world.
Behind the noble young man were several attendants, and behind them... Cecilia.
"Beautiful Cecily, since you are not feeling well today, I won't bother you. I hope that when I come next time, I can see you in good health and be able to accept my feelings." The noble young man said in a singing tone.
said.
Bai Xiaowen raised his eyebrows. Cecilia actually sent this young baron to the gate. It was really not easy.
"Baron Standing..."
Cecilia walked forward slowly while thinking about her words. When she reached the gate, her steps suddenly stopped and her voice stopped.
Because she saw someone.
Bai Xiaowen smiled and looked at Cecilia, and time seemed to freeze at this moment.
From Cecilia's beautiful face, Bai Xiaowen could see the expression changes of surprise, surprise, and a little panic, but in the end they were all replaced by deep joy.
Of course, there will always be people who spoil the scenery.
Baron Standing's voice sounded at an inappropriate time: "Cecily, who is this person?" He looked at Bai Xiaowen with a little jealousy.
Regardless of his appearance or figure, Bai Xiaowen completely blew him away. This frustrated Standing, who had always considered himself a handsome man and was quite confident in his own charm.
Based on appearance, Bai Xiaowen's own charm value is very gray and very high. After using the leaf-covering peony picture, adding another 20% on this basis is close to a foul, and the charm value is almost off the charts.
Then, something happened that made Baron Standing jealous.
Cecilia's body trembled slightly, and she suddenly stepped forward quickly, jumped down from the steps, was hugged by Bai Xiaowen, and then spun around several times, her skirt fluttering. Happy laughter, from Cecily
It kept coming from Ya's mouth.
Everyone: (dumbfounded.jpg) Is this still the cold iceberg known as the white rose?
Baron Standing's inner voice was: Damn, didn't you say you weren't feeling well?
Strong jealousy arose, but Baron Standing did not lose his mind. His many years of aristocratic education gave him a very good demeanor. After just a moment of losing his temper, he returned to normal.
"Dear Cecily, perhaps you should introduce this young gentleman to me first...oh no, who is the young boy."
After Bai Xiaowen held Cecilia twice, he gently put her down.
The two looked at each other affectionately.
Then, Cecilia suddenly held Bai Xiaowen's face and gave her a long, long kiss...
Bai Xiaowen passively endured it with a confused look on his face, thinking to himself, as expected, women in Western backgrounds are open-minded and can kiss deeply in public. Shuyi would not be willing to do this even if she was beaten to death... What did that Standing say just now?
?Isn’t it impolite to just ignore him like this?
So after the deep kiss ended, Bai Xiaowen took a breath, then hugged Cecilia's slender waist and looked at Standing: "I am her man. Who are you?"
