Werther looked at the water on his body, raised his sleeves and smelled it. Fortunately, it was just ordinary water.
He walked up the steps and arrived in front of the door. The guards on both sides of the door saw him, saluted him, and opened the door for him. Werther walked in.
The layout is the same as a few months ago, a luxurious and spacious palace with sparkling lights everywhere.
He saw an aristocratic boy of about ten years old not far away in the corridor. The servants would salute him respectfully and call him "Master" softly. However, when Werther walked over, most of the servants hid with strange expressions.
Drive him. He couldn't help but think to himself, it seems that my status in the palace is almost the same as before, with almost no change.
But he also had an indifferent attitude in his heart, because what he needed to focus on now was not such a trivial matter at all. When he passed by the restaurant, he was surprised and pleased that the chef who happened to pass by not only did not avoid him, but also smiled at him
Then he respectfully put his arm on the other shoulder and called softly: "Your Highness, the Great Prince."
Is he saluting me? This address almost moved Werther to tears. He smiled brightly at the chef and said: "Hello, sir."
However, since he is a chef working in the palace, he must be Si Shan's subordinate. His and Si Shan's demeanor are really different. I never expected that a person like Si Shan would have such polite and polite subordinates to me.
.
After Werther said goodbye to the chef, he walked in the direction of his bedroom. The familiar scene, the familiar door, and the rusty door lock.
Werther stretched out his hand and wiped it on the door handle, and his fingers were covered with dust. Unexpectedly, after Werther left the palace, no one continued to clean his bedroom. I wonder what would happen if Werther did not come back for decades.
, will this room be filled with spider webs or even become a haunted house?
He bent down and blew on the door handle, and the dust immediately dispersed into the air. After he was choked, he covered his nose and mouth and coughed twice, and then opened the door. The scene inside was exactly the same as when he left a few months ago.
Wile helped him clean it up at the time, and the two of them deliberately covered the furniture with a layer of cloth to block dust.
The windows and curtains here are tightly closed, and only the weak sunlight allows people to barely see the scene in the room. After taking off the cloth, fortunately there is no dust on the furniture, but there is an old smell. Werther feels that he still needs to be here.
After staying for two days, we still need to make this place more lively.
He walked to the window, opened the curtains, and warm sunlight poured into the room, making everything look extremely bright. He opened two more windows, and a cold and fresh breeze blew in. He couldn't help but take a sip.
Duo, you have to open two windows in cold weather. It is indeed a bit cold, but in order to keep the air fresh, just bear with it.
He looked at the floor again and found that there was a layer of dust accumulated on it. It looked like he needed to mop the floor. He looked at the bedroom, then went out and searched the entire corridor, but couldn't find a mop. Even if he wanted to find a mop, he was cleaning it.
He borrowed it from a servant, but no one was willing to lend it to him. He reluctantly returned to the room and decided to use magic.
After closing the door, he began to accumulate strength, and soon used teleportation magic to move all the dust to the soil in the garden outside. He looked at the bedroom that had become alive again with satisfaction, and smiled. He looked up again
I looked at the clock and found that it was already half past three.
"Oops, I have to change clothes to see my father." He turned around and walked to the closet. When he opened it, he found that there was no suitable clothes in it.
Anyway
Most of the wetness is on the cloak. Put the cloak in the bedroom, use magic to remove the remaining water on the clothes, and just wear the suit on your body to see your father. If anyone asks about it,
Why did the water dry out so quickly? I said it was because it was heated in front of the stove.
After drying his clothes with magic, he straightened his collar and hair in front of the mirror, adjusted his expression, practiced smiling for a few seconds, and then went out.
He remembered that the queen's personal servant had told him that he was going to the king and queen's bedroom.
"Bedroom, where will father's bedroom be?" He said to himself while looking around. In fact, he didn't know where the king's bedroom was at all. He just didn't want the servants who were teasing him to follow him.
What's worse now is that Wile, who knows the way to the palace, is not with him either. Although Wile is Werther's personal servant, he is still a minor nobleman. After he leaves the palace, he cannot enter the palace again without an invitation from the palace.
.I am afraid that the royal family forgot to send an invitation letter to Wile due to an oversight.
Werther couldn't find anyone to ask for directions, and he couldn't use his superpower eyes, so he could only search without any clue. Finally, he came to an extremely luxurious corridor. The decoration here was different from other corridors, and it was obviously very luxurious.
Much more noble. Apparently, the door in front is the king's bedroom. Just as Werther was about to walk over and knock on the door, he heard footsteps coming from behind.
"Your Highness, why are you here?"
Werther suddenly heard the voice of this strange man, and looked back to see a manservant wearing high-end servant clothes standing behind him. This manservant looked to be about the same age as his father, with a smart, capable and amiable temperament.
The servant stepped forward, saluted to Werther, and said, "Your Highness, I am the king's personal servant Mel. The king is waiting for you in the main hall. Why are you here?"
Werther raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Didn't my father ask me to come to his bedroom to find him?"
"Isn't that the case? Didn't the servants who greeted you tell you clearly that the king asked you to go to the main hall to find him. Because you are now returning to the palace as a meritorious person, you must go to the main hall to meet the king."
"What's in the bedroom now?"
"The queen is alone in the bedroom, and she is sleeping."
"So that's it."
Werther exclaimed in his heart that this was probably another trick of the previous servants. Fortunately, Maier reminded him in time, otherwise he would disturb the sleeping queen. This is a very unethical thing, and it is very likely that his father and stepmother will be punished.
When the time comes to blame, there's no telling what her stepmother will say to frame her.
"Are you here to take me to meet my father?" Werther asked Maier.
Maier smiled and nodded: "Of course, the guard told me that you arrived outside the palace at a quarter past two and were greeted by the servants sent by the queen. But after more than an hour you still didn't show up, so the king asked me to come find you.
You, looking at you, you won’t be deceived by the people who greet you. What did they tell you? "
"They said I needed to come to my father's bedroom to meet them."
"Sure enough, they miscommunicated the king's order."
"Then my father is anxious, isn't he?"
"At half past two, he was indeed a little anxious. However, he quickly summoned the circus and is now watching the circus performance in the main hall."
"What? Can you watch circus performances in the main hall?" Werther's mouth opened in shock. He stared.
He closed his eyes and looked at Maier in disbelief.
"As long as the king is fine with it, of course, your highness." Maier said with a smile, "I will take you to the main hall now. If the king is really angry, it will be detrimental to you."
Maier said, and took the initiative to walk behind Werther. Werther soon came to the hall and saw several people riding unicycles on the ground, and one man was riding a fire ring. The king was sitting on a high throne, staring at
He was looking at it with eyes the same color as Werther's, and he didn't even notice Werther's arrival.
Werther walked to the side of the circus, and Maier walked towards the king from the side and whispered in the king's ear: "Your Majesty, the eldest prince is here."
The king's expression suddenly changed. He looked around, and finally landed on Werther. His expression was very complicated, and he didn't want to stare at Werther for a long time, so he glanced elsewhere.
The king coughed slightly, raised his hand, and said loudly: "Please leave the circus."
Soon, the circus people packed up and left. Werther walked to the center, saluted the king, and said calmly: "See you, father."
The king coughed twice more and said, "Son, long time no see. How have you been in Daybreak Town during this time?"
"Everything is fine, please rest assured, father."
"Looking at your complexion, I think the housekeeper over there must be taking good care of you."
"Yes, father, Mr. Tom is a very capable steward, and everyone else in my castle is also a capable assistant."
"That's good. I want you to return to the palace this time because I want to hold a banquet for you. I'm really proud of you, son. You drove away the vampires in such a short time. This is something worthy of praise.
And I blame myself for not lending you troops before, I hope you don't blame me."
"How could I blame my father? My father is the person I respect the most."
"I think so, haha~" The king smiled awkwardly, his eyes looking very unnatural.
It seems that the king has not let go of his fear of Werther at all. Although his attitude towards him has improved, there is still a big gap. In addition to a slight self-blame, the father actually has a somewhat flattering demeanor. I am afraid that he is afraid of him.
Perhaps if he resented him too much, he would increase the chance of rebellion. Of course, this kind of meeting scene was also expected by Werther, and he was not surprised at all.
"Son, the banquet starts tomorrow. Most of the nobles from the Kingdom of Notland will be invited to this banquet. It will be held in this palace for one day and one night. Some members of the feudal royal family and the great nobles have moved in today.
Palace, you can go see them, of course you can also go see your younger brothers and sisters, they should be practicing swordsmanship or riding outside the palace now."
"I understand, Father, I will go see them if I have the chance."
"As for today's dinner, our whole family will eat in the restaurant, of course with the guests." The king's face became even more embarrassed. He even glanced at the floor tiles next to Werther, not daring to look at him.
Werther knew that his father was thinking about the fact that Werther was not allowed to eat at the palace table for many years. However, now that he had made a contribution, his father had no reason to stop him from dining with other royal members.
Werther came from time travel, but he didn't think there was anything wrong with it. He just felt sorry for the real Werther who had been left out for so long. He sighed quietly in his heart, then smiled at the king and said, "I understand.
